Description
The future Electron Ion Collider (EIC) will use photocathode based DC electron guns for both polarized and unpolarized electron beam generation. In this talk, the current status and recent progress of polarized photocathode research and applications at Brookhaven National Lab (BNL) will be presented. We will describe the experimental results from 300 a kV DC electron gun with DBR-SSL-GaAs photocathodes, including surface charge limit and lifetime studies.
